At 10:22, Zhao Qingge and Li Peifeng drove to Jiulong Resort.
Upon arrival, Li Peifeng realized that the resort was indeed impressive,
It was far from the Capital's city center, nestled between mountains and rivers, surrounded by lush greenery and clear waters, the environnt serene and elegant. Rows of French-style villas were arranged neatly, and a natural river ran through the village, far removed from the hustle and bustle of the city, as if stepping into a "paradise."
"Hiss~ Ha~"
Li Peifeng took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, savoring the fresh air, feeling completely relaxed.
Since acquiring the [Acute Sense of Sll], this was his first ti leaving the city, and the first ti he dared to fully utilize this skill, completely liberating his nose, and feeling great about it!
"Let's go to the hotel, I've already bought the tickets online."
"Okay!"
The interior of the resort was likely built to international five-star hotel standards. The lobby facilities and decor were grand and layered, with a touch of luxury in every corner.
"Hello, sir and madam, please put on your masks and show your green code."
Upon reaching the entrance, they were stopped by a female doorman, who was quite good-looking, although her eyes kept lingering on Li Peifeng.
Green code? I'm not a green code! I'm a dark horse! I just want to escape that steel city and run wild among the mountains and rivers!
"Oh, I forgot."
Li Peifeng, having not been out for a long ti, really forgot this part. He pulled out a worn-out mask from his pocket and put it on, then used his phone to scan the QR code, showing it to the staff: "Here."
Zhao Qingge followed closely behind, also showing her green code to the female doorman, and they finally entered the lobby.
"I'm going to get the access wristbands."
"Alright."
Zhao Qingge went to the front desk to scan the tickets with the staff and receive the wristbands.
A long-lost system prompt appeared in Li Peifeng's mind and before his eyes.
[Zhao Qingge is treating you to a playdate, spending 888 yuan, 42,640 yuan away from unlocking the lottery…]
Li Peifeng didn't think much of it, continuing to examine the resort's panoramic map on the wall, trying to morize the general location of various areas to avoid getting lost later.
"Peifeng, let's go."
"Shall we go fruit picking first?"
"Yeah, I'm a bit thirsty."
"It's been a while since I've had so good fruit."
This ti, Zhao Qingge took the initiative to hold Li Peifeng's hand, and the two walked out the door.
Perhaps due to the pandemic, there weren't many tourists at the resort. Along the way, there were staff mbers guiding them. While admiring the resort's scenery and strolling leisurely, they reached the orchard in a few minutes.
"You two can go in now. You can eat as much as you want during the picking period, but don't waste it, and definitely don't take a bite and put it back. If you haven't had enough, you can take so with you, but taking them will incur weighing and additional charges."
At the greenhouse entrance, an older woman in work attire checked their wristbands and handed each of them a small fruit basket. Li Peifeng and Zhao Qingge entered the greenhouse.
The climate inside the greenhouse was completely different from outside. Upon entering, one instantly felt the breath of spring. The first thing in sight was a narrow dirt path leading to the end of the greenhouse, about sixty ters long and seven or eight ters wide.
To the left were rows of strawberry bushes, planted horizontally, filled with a strong earthy sll and a faint strawberry fruit fragrance.
Besides the two of them, there were also three visitors who had arrived earlier and were busy picking.
"Be gentle when picking strawberries; they squash easily. There's tap water at the far end for washing."
Zhao Qingge reminded as she led Li Peifeng forward, skipping the strawberries that others had already picked over before bending down to pick fruit.
Li Peifeng bent down and took a quick glance. So strawberries were the size of lychees, pale all over, obviously young fruits. Others looked sizable, but only the bottom was red while the tips remained white, clearly not ripe enough.
Only a small portion were fully ripened, large in size and completely red, looking very tempting, making one want to pluck them and imdiately put them in their mouth.
"These are really good!"
Li Peifeng felt his mouth watering, so he simply crouched down and moved inside, searching for ripe fruits. He found one, broke it off at the connection between fruit and stem, wiped it with his hand, and popped it into his mouth.
The texture was tender inside and out, bursting with juice. The strong sweet and sour strawberry flavor exploded in his mouth; after swallowing, there was even a hint of milky taste.
In two words, delicious!
Li Peifeng couldn't stop himself, picking and eating one after another. At first, he would wipe them with his hand; later, he didn't even bother wiping, just stuffing them straight into his mouth, with not a single one landing in his fruit basket. After walking through several rows of strawberries, he found one particularly large, vibrant red strawberry.
"This one must be delicious!"
Just as Li Peifeng was about to pick it off and put it in his mouth, he suddenly rembered sothing, paused his action, looked up with a smile, and said, "Honey, try this one."
But Zhao Qingge was nowhere in sight. As he turned his head to the right, he realized that Old Zhao had already made his way onto the dirt path nearby, walking towards him.
Zhao Qingge's basket was half full, and she held an even larger and prettier strawberry than the one Li Peifeng had found. It didn't just have the stem and leaves removed; it also seed to have been freshly rinsed, with both the fruit and her fingertips glistening with droplets.
"Try this one first." Zhao Qingge held the strawberry up to Li Peifeng's mouth, saying with a smile, "This one should taste great."
"…It's sweet without even tasting it; hold on a mont." Li Peifeng smiled more broadly, taking the strawberry he had picked and running to the greenhouse faucet, washing it, removing the stems and leaves, and returning to place it in Zhao Qingge's hand.
"You eat mine, I'll eat yours."
Zhao Qingge nodded, took his strawberry, and placed it in her mouth. As she chewed and savored, she glanced at Li Peifeng, who had already swallowed the one she gave him, watching her intently. Slightly at a loss for words, Zhao Qingge simply gave a light smile.
This scene is best described by a poem:
At this ti, spring is in its most hazy state, with rays of sunshine and breezes intertwined.
A light pick of the eyes, the smile is sweeter than strawberries.
"..."
"..."
Li Peifeng blinked and whispered, "At this mont, you could say, 'Baby, hurry over and give a kiss, rember to open your mouth, I need to see if the strawberries you just ate are as sweet as I am.'
Zhao Qingge squinted her slender eyes, "No need to try, they definitely aren't as sweet as I am."
"Then what I give you is sweeter than what you give ?"
"No!" Zhao Qingge imdiately changed her stance, "What I give you is sweet."
"How do you know if you haven't tried it? You really need to try for yourself."
Li Peifeng took Zhao Qingge's hands seriously and asked, "So, shall we kiss?"
Zhao Qingge blushed, seemingly a little angry, glaring at him, glaring!
Li Peifeng gazed at her up close, but didn't take the initiative, waiting for her to make the move.
Actually, he just wanted Old Zhao to gradually lower her guard, otherwise, she always made Li Peifeng chase after her, which affected the intimacy of the relationship. Let alone the five-in-one unity later!
But Zhao Qingge clearly wasn't willing, glaring at him hatefully for a while, then letting go and planning to leave, "Don't distract from picking strawberries."
The plan failed, Li Peifeng felt a bit regretful but not discouraged, he continued picking strawberries. After eating quite a bit, he took out his phone and snapped a few photos of Zhao Qingge.
By the ti it was already past eleven, they finished the picking activity, ca out of the greenhouse, and headed to the restaurant for lunch.
The food was average, but it was a buffet. Li Peifeng ate until he was full and was quite satisfied. After eating, they strolled around the resort, looked at the museum, and the ti reached twelve-thirty, finally arriving at the key part of the Jiulong Resort trip— soaking in the hot springs!
The Jiulong Resort offers outdoor open-air hot springs, indoor hot springs, and VIP hot spring rooms with more privacy.
They had access to all three types of hot springs with their tickets, so they discussed and decided to check each type out first. If there weren't many people in the indoor and outdoor springs, they wouldn't go to the VIP hot spring room since the latter only had one small pool with a less enjoyable soaking experience.
"Get yourself a pair of swim trunks, I'm going to rinse off and change clothes."
In the lobby of the hot springs bathhouse, Zhao Qingge spoke, then entered the won's changing room.
"I want the black one, the largest size."
Faced with an array of swim trunks, Li Peifeng didn't carefully select and just chose the largest one. But to be honest, it still looked a bit small, the trunks were tiny and very conspicuous.
This also led to occasional glances from several n in the dressing room.
"Young man, that's a bit exaggerated, how did it grow like that?"
"Grew randomly."
An elderly man with a head full of white hair spoke boldly. Having almost finished rinsing, Li Peifeng chuckled, brushed off the comnts, and quickly left.
What's the point of wearing swim trunks for other n to see? It's Old Zhao who should see them!
He lifted the door curtain and entered the indoor hot spring hall, surrounded by the sound of flowing water. The center featured a man-made mountain with flowing water, and every floor tile beneath his feet had a fountain constantly gushing hot water.
The hall, with a height of three ters and an estimated area of at least eight hundred square ters, was filled with hot springs of various shapes like circular, oval, and rectangular. Each hot spring had different benefits; so contained Chinese herbs, so had rose or jasmine petals, and others had milk, red wine...
"Not many people here, huh."
Li Peifeng glanced around and nodded with satisfaction. The large indoor hot spring hall had only twenty to thirty people sparsely scattered around, the sound of water overshadowing their conversations.
"Why haven't you moved?"
A familiar elegant female voice ca from behind, and when Li Peifeng turned around, he was srized.
Zhao Qingge's long hair, usually tied up, now fell around her cheeks, dripping with water. Her face was slightly flushed but her expression remained composed. She wore a black halter swimsuit, baring her shoulders with short sleeves, the skirt reaching her thighs.
The swimsuit seed similar to the ultra-short sumr dresses that daring female college students wear, but as it's a swimsuit, the material differed from regular clothing. The black sheer fabric appeared a bit see-through, a bit mysterious, faintly revealing the inner layer of black underpants...
Combined with Zhao Qingge's stunning face and figure, along with her approachable yet appropriately aloof deanor, she looked incredibly sexy!
"Are you still planning on staying here?"
Zhao Qingge tilted her head, running a hand through her long hair. Her eyes held a hint of a smile as she glanced at him and then looked into the distance: "If you're not moving, I'm going; it's still a bit chilly after just coming out."
"Let's move now, wouldn't want you to catch a chill!"
Without another word, Li Peifeng took Zhao Qingge's hand and stepped forward.
Their outstanding appearance and figures caught the attention of others in the hall, including a middle-aged couple who had just finished rinsing, donned their swimwear, and walked into the hot spring hall behind Li Peifeng and Zhao Qingge...
The man was complaining, "I told you to buy the tickets online in advance, you didn't listen, and now we've driven all the way to Feng Mountain Resort only to find it closed because the staff were in close contact. We had to detour and drive an extra seven or eight kiloters. If you'd bought the tickets earlier, you'd have known about this, and all this wouldn't have happened."
"You told to buy them, why didn't you? Alright, alright, stop nagging about such a small thing!"
The woman retorted briefly, then turned to look ahead and instantly spotted the backs of Li Peifeng and Zhao Qingge. Her eyes widened in shock, and her mouth opened and closed, struggling to speak imdiately.
"What's wrong with you?"
The man followed his wife's gaze with a squint, puzzled, "What are you looking at?"
The woman's face turned pale, her lips trembling, "Old Zhao, look at that girl... isn't that our daughter?"
